The first true repeater model was the Benjamin "Automatic" -which later was designated the model 600- in the early 1930s. There are no known existing examples of this model. The first Benjamin repeater model was patented in 1902 (693,823) by WR Benjamin and was introduced in 1903. The later post war model 720 is, according to the literature, a single shot with a magazine. It has no external tank like the model 710 but the internal air chamber of the 700, according to the factory schematics, is distinctly enlarged compared to the other models of this type. Folks looking for a display example usually want rather nice looking ones.ĭon R.The original Benjamin literature for the model 700 indicates reserve power for 4 to 5 successive shots. I agree that the tire-pump Benji's are mostly just collector pieces and not in great demand. It was the 710 that had the multi-shot air reservoir beneath the tube 700 is a normal 1-shot per pumping deal.
